An Anti-statistical Analysis LSB Steganography Incorporating Extended Cat-Mapping
In this paper, we propose a modified LSB steganography which resists most of the popular statistical analysis-based steganalysis, such as SPA (Sample Pair Analysis) and RS. The modified algorithm does not solely depends on embedding secret message into the cover image as the conventional LSB watermarking method does, but increases or decreases the candidate pixels value by two in accordance with the number of the pixels surrounding pixels whose LSB is positive. We discuss on the basic principle of the proposed algorithm and experiments show that the improved LSB steganography has a good robustness to statistical analysis. An extended cat-mapping is introduced in this paper which will better encrypt the secret message than the standard cat mapping. Experiments show the histogram of the encrypted image will be flat and resembles the white noises histogram, which significantly enhances the security of the algorithm.
